Tod,
Ok, you have an open circuit somewhere between the power supply and
the
anode of D2 - there are only a few pieces involved - the wire in
the power
cable, the male connector, the female connector in the KX1 and a
bit of PC
board trace going from the connector to the anode of D2. Continue the
continuity testing on each piece and possibly through the mated
connectors -
sometimes connectors will fail to mate properly if one of then does
not have
adequate spring tension in the contacts.
You likely do not have a dead KX1, but you do have a dead power
connection
somewhere along the line.
Found the problem.
The nylon shoulder washer is missing from Q6. There also seems to be
a secondary problem with the external power in jack.
If I connect the radio to batteries without the faceplate, it works
fine.
Looks like I need another power jack and shoulder washer. Thanks all.
